Beverly Hills Spring Art Show 2026

Hi all! I am thinking we can walk the Beverly Hills art show again in 2026. It is a free outdoor art event and they have it twice a year in Beverly Hills.

DTLA ArtNight Social Walk: Art, Conversation & New People

Last-minute meetup for DTLA ArtNight this Thursday. This is a low-pressure social walk for people who want to meet new people, check out galleries, and have real conversations without a loud bar or awkward networking vibe. We’ll meet as a small group, walk through a few ArtNight stops, and then whoever wants can grab a drink, coffee, tea, or dessert nearby after. Come solo — that’s the point. No need to know anyone beforehand. Good fit if you like: art, architecture, creative people, thoughtful conversations, entrepreneurship, music, design, self-improvement, and exploring LA without the club scene. Not the vibe: loud nightlife, aggressive networking, pitching, cliques, or getting wasted. Plan: 6:45 PM — Meet up at the **Last Bookstore 453 S. Spring St.** 7:00-7:20 PM — Start the gallery walk 8:30 PM — Optional sit-down nearby 9:00 PM — **DTLA Artnight After Party** **location_on Florentín Rooftop Bar,** 617 S Spring St 8th floor, Los Angeles, CA 90014, USA Small group preferred so people can actually talk. I’ll post the exact meetup point before the event.
